I’m on FACEBOOK
Hello, New Friends!
My name is Cherylene "Twiggy" Billue, and I’m running for re-election as Commissioner of Education to continue the work we’ve started in strengthening our schools and empowering our students. For over 20 years, I’ve dedicated myself to being an advocate for education and a community organizer here in Syracuse. Through my experiences, I’ve gained deep insight into the challenges and opportunities that shape our schools, and I’m committed to ensuring our district thrives for years to come.
There’s More To Be Done!
The action behind our voice continues with the election in June. Show your support and VOTE!
Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our students. Your support in this next term will help us keep moving forward, ensuring our schools remain a place where every student can thrive through:
Strengthening School Attendance: Attendance is the foundation for student success, and I will continue to support initiatives that encourage every child to show up, every day.
Increasing and Diversifying Funding: We need more resources to ensure our schools have what they need to succeed and support the growing needs of our students.
Enhancing School Safety: Ensuring a safe and welcoming environment for students, teachers, and staff is a top priority.
Building Stronger Community Partnerships: Engaging families and the broader community is essential to the success of our students, and I will continue to work on building relationships that help our families stay involved in their children's education.
Supporting Teachers and Students: Our educators are the backbone of our schools, and I will continue to advocate for the support and resources they need to help students achieve their fullest potential.
